LeAnn Rimes

So, did she dye? LeAnn Rimes was out in Los Angeles last week sporting what appeared to be brunette hair. But back in town this weekend after a trip to the south — and looking as blonde as ever — the singer said she never changed her hair color.

Joking that her next hair color would be black, Rimes cleared up additional rumors, too. “So you all know, I’m blonde & there’s no ‘tell all’ book about divorce, marriage and ‘my side.’ I just laugh at [all] of this!”

However, the star did visit the Chris McMillan Salon in Beverly Hills on Monday, where she got a quick trim — and happily confirmed it, Tweeting, “Love my hair cut from Mr McMillan as always.” It makes sense knowing that Rimes didn’t dye her hair twice in a week, but we have to admit: we kind of liked the idea of her as a brunette. Tell us: Do you think Rimes should try going brunette?

Looking good, Lady! LeAnn Rimes changed up her hair color this week, switching from blonde to a deep chestnut hue. The singer debuted the new style while out and about in Los Angeles on Thursday.

Rimes, who’s had quite light hair for as long as we can remember, was still blonde Sunday at the Academy of Country Music Awards in Las Vegas, where she turned up in a Stella McCartney dress and shared a little red carpet PDA with husband Eddie Cibrian. This weekend, she’s performing for fans in Mississippi and Alabama.

The hair is definitely a dramatic change, but we have to admit — we’re liking it. Tell us: What do you think of Rimes’s darker hair?

Late last week, we spotted LeAnn Rimes out in Malibu wearing Michelle Jonas Travelwear’s keyhole dress in “Italian moss” ($235). She paired the maxi — which features an open back — with an unstructured tan blazer, pink purse and booties.

Interestingly enough,Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Brandi Glanville — who was once married to Rimes’s current husband, Eddie Cibrian — wore the same dress in blue on the most recent season of the Bravo show. The reality vixen sported the dress as-is and paired it with breezy sandals on a Hawaiian episode entitled “Leis and Lies in Lanai.”

Since it is such a style coincidence, we have to ask: Who wore her maxi dress best?

NewlywedsLeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian didn’t seem to mind the close quarters in the front row at Monique Lhuillier Saturday night, enjoying each others’ company at their very first fashion show together.

“I love Monique, she is one of my favorite designers,” Rimes told PEOPLE at New York’s Lincoln Center. “So it’s nice to come out and support her, and this is Eddie’s first show with me. So it’s fresh.”

Though Rimes said it took her all of 30 minutes to get ready for their night out, Cibrian needed a little more time. “It took me an hour and a half,” he joked, making Rimes giggle. “And there is a big discrepancy there, and I don’t like that.”

So what’d he think of his first New York City runway show? “It’s a lot of hoopla,” the Playboy Club star admitted. “But not too much.”

That’s not to say he wouldn’t have preferred to be at a baseball game though. “He’s so boyish,” said Rimes. “So, you know.”

This season, four very different fashionistas have been stepping out in raffia and leather “Gava” pumps by Isabel Marant. While it’s not unusual for stars to go head to head in similar styles, these funky kicks have managed to bridge the gap between supermodel and executive, ingénue and country star. On April 6, Transformers beauty Rosie Huntington-Whitely sported the $825 pair with similarly-hued separates and a complementary hat. The following month, Gisele Bündchen added panache to a work-ready ensemble with the pumps’ thick ankle cuffs. For the CFDA awards, J.Crew creative director Jenna Lyons juxtaposed electric green sequins with the must-have shoe. Then, two days later, LeAnn Rimes dressed down the versatile heels with a layered tunic dress. We think the “Gava” adds an unexpected element to all four looks, but want to hear from you!
